Our developer wants to 'sneak' this feature into version 1.56. If you run around the house with your phone and app version 1.56, you can now detect AP roaming (from your phone) and also see which AP you are connecting to. (These guys need emotional support, give a like please!)
We received the Firewalla Gold Pro (10Gbit) boards last week, and as of this weekend, we have functionally tested the unit! We'll start our pre-sale on 4/2/2024 at 9am Pacific Time. Everyone who preregistered via will receive a one-time coupon
Here is the Firewalla 10Gbit concept mockup we created a while back. We will proceed to the prototype phase (PCB) and wait in parallel for the pricing of parts to come down. If you are interested in the project, please help us by signing up here:

5 years ago, we started the Firewalla prototype on a raspberry pi and the goal of making cyber security simple and affordable for everyone. And now, we have five different products just for that.
Thank you all for supporting us!
This is an artistic 3D rendering of the 10Gbit Firewalla we are considering making. If you are interested in helping us launch this product (targeting Christmas 2024, Q1 2025), please sign up at

Early 2017, our prototype "Firewalla Red" for Kickstarter and then later Indiegogo 🙂 printed in our founder's garage. It is nice to look back and see how we started 🙂 ... starting up is never easy, but hardwork and customer focus will make things happen ... Happy Friday!

Back in 2017, we launched our first-ever crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter with a vision to make cybersecurity accessible and affordable for everyone. We never could have imagined the incredible journey that would follow. THANK YOU!
Found this piece of history. This is one of the boxes we made for B&M retailers in 2018, so people can pick it up and read it. I think people prefer research products on the web ... so we went back to the boring "Firewalla" brown box :). We like selling online better.
Your Firewalla is about to become even more powerful! We have released Firewalla 1.61 as a phased release for iOS (you can manually update if you can't wait) and Android (you will have to wait until Google pushes the update to you).
Firewalla 1.49 is now released, lots of features on network performance monitoring! Not only firewalla can help you secure the network, it can also make your network perform better :) release notes here
The more affordable (PURPLE SE) "full" engineering sample. What we do is take these units and run full regression + stress, and after Jasmine (our test manager) blesses everything, we will give the signal to start the final production.
Pre-sale of the Firewalla rackmount coming soon. It is more than a gorgeous rack! (sign up ) In the photo, we strapped a small switch to the right side (which can also be a modem)
See Anything Different? Firewalla 1.45/1.972 now released in production for the Gold! (blue+/blue/red coming up soon!) Thank you all for beta/early access feedbacks! Enjoy WireGuard, See the hidden blocked sites, Group your routes in a list ...
A piece of history from our first Kickstarter campaign. June/2017 we launched the Firewalla. The product name was "Firewalla", and after the successful crowdfunding, Kickstarter supporters told us they preferred "red" more than this orange. So ... the birth of the Firewalla Red.
Firewalla Box Release 1.971 Multi-WAN, Smart Queue + Rate limit, Device Quarantine in Production for the Gold! Beta for the Blue Plus and early access for the red/blue
Seven years ago, a group of engineers shared a 3D-printed prototype on Kickstarter (and later Indiegogo), transforming the idea of a simple firewall into a working product. (coupon is limited, and first come first serve)
Amazon disabled our Firewalla Red product ... because they think we are a pesticide ... (and every year they do this) ... Reason why we are not putting all of our product there.
Amazing to see how the Firewalla evolved in the past 4 years. We started on kickstarter (and later moved to indiegogo), and four years later we have the Firewalla Purple () Thank you all for supporting, it is just amazing looking back at these images.
Thanks to feedback from our community and our awesome early access/beta users, app 1.60 includes some UI updates to make using the Firewalla app easier, more efficient, and more convenient.
The Gold Plus boat is rocking its way to Los Angeles/USA and will likely land on 11/21. It may take a week or two for the units to be shippable to USA/Canadian pre-order customers. We should have enough for some extras.
Are you interested in a more affordable Purple unit? if you are, please signup to access our Firewalla Purple SE presale! The Purple SE runs the same software as the Purple, and works great with internet speeds less than 500mbit. More Info:
The importance of knowing what devices are doing and do something to control it ... Firewalla features like device quarantine, network segmentation, and firewalls are useful features to get the extra protection. Plus spending a bit extra may help as well.
💜 This is a reminder, we will be launching the Purple campaign on Indiegogo with "Early Bird" start on July 19th, 7:30 am Pacific Time. (Quantity limited) Use this link to join
A piece of Firewalla history from 2017, just before our first Kickstarter: limited to 100 Mbits, and prosumers are just beginning to understand the importance of cybersecurity for homes and small businesses. And now we have the Firewalla Gold Pro, 100 times faster than the FW red
Thank you all for your support in 2020! More awesome features are coming your way, and we all hope you are happy with your Firewalla Red/Blue/Gold/Blue+. Wish the world can go back to normal in 2021! And everyone healthy and protected in the real world and the digital world.
WireGuard VPN Server is coming to your Gold and Blue Plus ... We just launched beta ... and there are tons of features to "wow" in the 1.972 and 1.45 app release
Come and see how easy it is to turn on WireGuard
So much power to route and filter your traffic. And very little power used to do that 🙂 This "beast ()" has four Cortex A73 performance cores and 2 Cortex A53 low power cores
